Julie Christensen - A Sad Clown

Vienna, Illinois

I read your letter again today
I didn't even feel sad
I wonder, if I picked up the pen and the paper
Could I even write you back?
Vienna, Illinois
Vienna, Illinois
You never came to visit me
I never wanted your tears
My window looks right out onto the Shawnee
I saw a sweet runnin deer
So free.
So free.
Vienna, Illinois
Vienna, Illinois
I hardly talk to the other man who shares my cell
I try not to think too much in between the bells
It don't feel like livin any more than it feels like I'm dyin
It just feels like I'm shufflin' through hell
It just feels like I'm shufflin' through hell
Vienna, Illinois
Vienna, Illinois
Downwind from trouble at the swamps at Grantsburg
Murderers out walkin after eighteen years
Then there are those of us whose lives changed forever
Due to blindness from the beers
And I've never even seen the town
No I've never even seen the town
Vienna, Illinois
Vienna, Illinois
So free (We're not that different, you and I)
So free (I think about that all the time)
Vienna, Illinois
Vienna, Illinois
Vienna, Illinois
Vienna, Illinois
